Do any of you TM guys clean with high flow jets? Ive been playing around with my jet set up on my wands and have cleaned a few crap holes recently using a wp 4 jet wand with 03s for a total flow of 12. It cleans amazing and the drying times are still good. Im trying to find the sweet point between good pressure and flow to help speed up certain jobs.

I run 4 x 02s at 450psi 

I used to run 03s which I liked as they never got blocked...... anything smaller than 02 and I'm forever cleaning crap out of them.

If you move up from 02 to 03 jets you are theoretically putting down 33% more water. Provided you have a decent size blower on your machine you shouldn't have any problems.
However depending on the HXs' on your machine you will also have a drop in temperature of your rinse.

I reckon high flushing gives a better clean & the consequential  drop in temp isn't that important.

There are guys in the States using flows of 16.  The likes of Simon's machine would happily cope with that

02 to 03 that excludes Billy then

I upped my 4-jet to a total of '08 but clean with reduced pressure, the idea being to avoid blasting water down into the backing.  I cleaned a 30+ year old Axminster at 150psi today, came up lovely and after a quick turbo-dry was touch dry by the time I left

I have a twin jet downgraded to '04 total jetting which I run at higher pressures when needed to apply a bit of brute force.  Got myself out of the doo-doo with it the other day, started to extract an Axminster which had compacted soil washing up in tide marks using the low-impact 4-jet setup.  Switched to the 2 jets and cranked it up and it sorted the problem.

You can't use just one wand configuration to cover everything
